Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for December 08, 2012
Transcript:
Phoebe: In summer, it's sunny until late, but people hardly ever give you presents. In winter, you get presents but it's all cold and dark. I wonder what you'd get if you could combine presents and sunshine. Marigold: Unicorns. Phoebe: I guess I kinda set you up, there.

So if Sunshine and presents is unicorns then would sunshine and lollypops be candy dragons?Either way I am looking forward to some Christmas unicorns!I can’t wait to see how festive the cast will look when they start doing there Holiday stuff. (refer back to my post on Unicorn Christmas songs)Any how I think more holidays in the winter time makes up for the fact that it is dark and gloomy and we need that some thing to make us all happy. I do wish we has summer Halloween. I hate having to have layers under and over my costume.

The holidays in southern Florida or California come close. There are lots of horses there too.An equine is a gift that keeps giving all year long.

This is probably the best drawn comics strip (beside my own) on GoComics. I really would like to see it (or Ozy and Millie) animated.

It’s quite cozy to have Christmas with a fire going in the fireplace, which is not something you’d want to do in the summer.

Is PHE living in a skating or skiing area? Burning blue skies and crisp fresh snow are free above the 40th. Hilly streets closed or parks for sledding great..MAR would have to go into hibernation. To dangerous for a white on white creature on the roads.

Some unicorn can’t be in winter. They shed a spring biosphere wherever they go for a 3 mile radius.

It was from the teen movie “Ski Party”, and, yes, it was Leslie Gore.
Another thing that’s nice about summer birthdays is that, even 50–60 years later, it’s easier to remember what age you were when something happened, because you stay the same age all through the school year.
I’ve been vaguely supposing that Phoebe lives in Washington state, both because Dana is from Washington and because I grew up in Maine, and this strip just feels northern to me, as northern as visiting a friend’s farm to cut your own Christmas tree.
